Sergeant PJ Collins hasn''t always been this overweight; mother of two Brid Riordan hasn''t always been an alcoholic; and elegant Evelyn Ross hasn''t always felt that her life was a total waste. So when human remains are discovered on an old farm, suspected to be that of Tommy Burke - a former love of both Brid and Evelyn - the village''s dark past begins to unravel.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs the frustrated PJ struggles to solve a genuine case for the first time in his life, he unearths a community''s worth of anger and resentments, secrets and regret.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDarkly comic, touching and at times profoundly sad. Graham Norton employs his acerbic wit to breathe life into a host of lovable characters, and explore - with searing honesty - the complexities and contradictions that make us human.","brand":"Hodder \u0026 Stoughton","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56917276426575,"sku":"9781399707756","price":14.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0061\/0372\/8217\/files\/9781399707756_1-holding.jpg?v=1769593818","url":"https:\/\/www.suomalainen.com\/products\/holding-1","provider":"Suomalainen.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
